The sudden and intensive gunfire from behind the fire in the bandit camp in the east of the village shook the night.
It immediately attracted the attention of everyone inside and outside the village.
The bandit soldiers huddled in the open field in the north of the village, using the ditches in the ground as cover, and all looked eastward in the darkness.
The fire burning on the east side remained almost unchanged, except for the occasional screaming black shadow that appeared in the light of the fire, and then fell directly to the ground...
The fourth master's heart sank. After many years of wandering in the world, he immediately understood that something had probably happened to Lao Qi, who was in charge of the east!
Subconsciously, I turned my head to look at the team coming from the north...just now the spies said that reinforcements from the security group were coming from the north!
First, the Major Headquarters in the south was attacked, and then there was a gunfight at Lao Qi's place in the east. He was not stupid and immediately realized that there was something wrong.
Could there be someone from the east pretending to be reinforcements? Or because this is not Huang County! Could it be that the Pu County Security Team is deliberately playing dirty tricks to take advantage of others?
"Fourth brother, look, why is it so lively over there at Master Qi's house in the east? Fourth brother...Fourth brother..." One of the subordinates asked a little uneasily.
The gunfire in the east gradually became sparse. The battle might be nearing its end? The brooding fourth child suddenly came to his senses. No, the seventh child was probably tricked!
At this time, he didn't even think about going to the rescue, now he had to protect himself first! Immediately give the order: "Everyone is ready to fight. Point your machine guns at the team to the north. Watch them carefully and keep an eye on them. Immediately ask all the brothers who are approaching from the front to move back, and then withdraw to the west to the young commander." .”
The two light machine guns responsible for fire suppression among the bandits turned their muzzles, and twenty or thirty guns were spread out, all pointing at the team approaching with torches in the open area to the north.
The fourth leader was located near the north, and could see more details of the team coming from the north. As the torch continued to approach, the field of vision gradually became clearer, and finally he could see clearly that the team coming was only number 20 or 30. It was unclear how many people were behind it. The team was less than 300 meters away from him at this time and was quickly approaching him...
If the security team really came from Pu County, how could they maintain such a fast speed?
Something unusual.
A faint flash of light in the distance flashed quickly in Lao Si's eyes and then disappeared.
The fourth master's heart sank. He guessed that someone was looking at him with a telescope!
A dark figure became increasingly apparent as the area illuminated by the torch moved rapidly toward him.
It's common for bandits to fight against each other. Even if it's really the Pu County security team who comes, they have to be put down here first!
The fourth master was about to give the order to start a fight when a bandit trotted up to him: "Go back to the fourth master's house. The brothers who entered from the south have all retreated!"
The Fourth Master looked at the dark crowd of brothers behind him and hesitated for a moment, conserving strength was the fundamental thing!
It's just a legend that you can stay calm in times of crisis!
Knowing that the situation is not good but still not running away...can such a person be called a bandit?
The fourth master said one word from between his teeth: "Retreat!"
In the darkness about a hundred meters away from the north of the village, there were blurry figures lying on the ground. The bandit soldiers, who were originally planning to attack the group coming from the north, were caught off guard. After receiving the order from the fourth master, they immediately got up from the ground in a panic and helped them. The wounded soldiers carried the bodies of the brothers who had died earlier, ran away to the west!
As the torches held by the team in the north emitted bunches of light, and as they continued to approach, the open space in the north of the village suddenly became much brighter.
boom...
A dull gunshot rang out in the village. A soldier holding a torch was hit by a flying bullet and fell to the ground immediately.
"Hurry up and throw down the torch!" Ma Liangliang, who has been on the battlefield for a long time, was suddenly startled and immediately understood what was going on! At this time, we are only more than a hundred meters away from the village, holding a torch in the dark... At this time, we can't tell the difference between ourselves and the enemy!
Then he shouldn't be directly targeted by the Eighth Route Army in the village?
Careless! Ma Liang blamed himself a little. He was hit by one of his own people. How unjust was it?
The soldier next to him was busy bandaging the arm of the soldier who was shot!
Fortunately, he was only shot in the arm and could not die. As for whether the bones were damaged, I don’t know yet. If the bones were really damaged, it is impossible to say that the arm would have to be destroyed.
Ma Liang frowned. As a commander, he felt that he should bear such responsibility if a soldier was shot by his own people on the battlefield and was accidentally injured!
This is also a lesson. On this kind of battlefield where it is impossible to identify ourselves and the enemy, we must always remain vigilant, and we should not make such stupid mistakes as standing on the enemy's position in the dark night and using torches as targets.
This is a battlefield! Be careful with everything!
The soldier in charge of reconnaissance at the front ran to Ma Liang: "Report, all the bandits here ran westward, not even a body of the bandits was left!"
Ma Liang came to his senses: "Let's go, we have to contact Li Huanzhang who is guarding the village immediately!"
village.
Seeing that all the torches in the open field to the north were extinguished, a soldier leaned his gun against the wall and asked his comrades next to him: "Do those bastards really think that I can't shoot them accurately?"
"Be careful!" The squad leader on the wall next to him turned to remind the soldier who had just shot Huo Ba, the "enemy" in the north.
The squad leader was a little surprised when a group of enemies ran from the darkness to the west.
Earlier, whenever a shot was fired in the village, it would immediately attract a hail of bullets from the bandits in retaliation. However, this time when the enemy's torches were knocked out, the "enemies" in the north did not fire a single shot at all!
Previously, there was a fierce fight in the east of the village, and the militia company commander Zhou was in charge. He wanted to worry but was powerless.
The squad leader began to think hard about how to deal with the enemy's attack.
In an instant, a voice came from the darkness in the north: "Comrades in the village, don't shoot, we are the 9th Battalion of the Independent Regiment!"
The sound reached the ears of the soldiers at the entrance of the village. The squad leader was stunned for a moment, the ninth battalion of the Independent Regiment?
This guy actually said he was from the 9th Battalion of the Independent Regiment!
The reinforcements of the Independence Regiment are more than sixty miles away from here. Comrades go to ask for help. They come and go... Can he arrive in five hours in vain?
Humph, these bandits want to pretend to be an independent group!
Do you really think I am a fool?
"Then come over here and let me see what your independent group looks like!"
Another voice came from the darkness: "Hurry up and call Li Huanzhang, your first squad leader Qin Damao, your second squad leader Sai Kongming..."
Hearing the name of the platoon leader and himself mentioned by the person in the darkness, the squad leader was ecstatic. This was definitely one of his own! Although he deliberately called Qin Dahu, the squad leader, Qin Damao! He was also called by his own nickname...
No longer hesitating: "Haha, I am Sai Kongming, are you really an independent group? Hurry up and light the torch and let me see who is running so fast... By the way... What is your name?"
Ma Liang asked the soldier next to him to light a torch and stood up from the darkness: "I am Ma Liang. Go and call Li Huanzhang. The bandits here just now ran to the west!"
Sai Kongming looked at Ma Liang's figure in the distance. Although he was surprised, he still remained vigilant: "Come closer...let me see clearly!"
Ma Liang reached out and took the torch from the soldier's hand, took a squad of soldiers and walked straight to the village.
Sai Kongming, who was lying on the wall, couldn't restrain the ecstasy in his heart: "It's really Captain Ma! You guys are here!"
After saying that, he immediately gave an order to the soldiers next to him: "Hurry and inform the platoon leader that reinforcements from the Independence Regiment have arrived!"
The soldier jumped off the wall and ran out of the yard like flying. Sai Kongming quickly turned his head again and asked: "Captain Ma, the movement in the east just now was also caused by you, right?"
Ma Liang only led more than ten people towards the village. It didn't make much sense for all the people to enter the village now. He had to first understand the current situation in the village, place his troops outside the village, and prevent the bandits from making small moves.
Moreover, I still haven't figured out why the bandits in the north of the village ran away before he arrived.
Thanks to Brother Shi Jirufeng for the reward...
